Brighton have drawn 2 consecutive Premier League games.
Brighton are unbeaten in their last 4 home matches against Nottingham Forest.
Nottingham Forest have drawn 2 of their last 3 fixtures.

Head to Head

Nottingham Forest have a 17-13 advantage against Brighton in 41 meetings with 11 draws.

Brighton Form

Brighton are yet to taste defeat under new manager Fabian Hurzeler. The South Coast side are unbeaten in 10 straight matches, winning eight.

Hürzeler’s team made a flying start this season with a 3-0 win against Everton and a 2-1 victory over Man United. A 1-1 draw at Arsenal and goalless deadlock with Ipswich last weekend has halted the Seagulls’ momentum.

An EFL Cup 3-2 triumph over Wolves helped Brighton to extend their unbeaten run. The Seagulls had nine shots on target with goals to Carlos Baleba, Simon Adingra and Ferdi Kadioglu securing the win.

Brighton Injuries

Midfield trio James Milner, Solly March and Matthew O'Riley are injured and unavailable.

Attacker Brajan Gruda is also out due to injury.

Nottingham Forest Form

Nottingham Forest have found some rhythm under Nuno Espirito Santo. The Midlands outfit haven’t lost any of their five matches and have drawn three.

Forest held Bournemouth to a 1-1 draw before a 1-0 win at Southampton. Successive 1-1 stalemates with Newcastle in the EFL Cup and Wolves in the league followed.

The Reds’ best result of the campaign came on Saturday as they edged Liverpool to a 1-0 win at Anfield. Forest were outplayed with 0.59-1.17 XG but Callum Hudson-Odoi’s 71st-minute strike proved the difference.

Nottingham Forest Injuries

Midfielder Ibrahim Sangare and centre-back Willy Boly are injury doubts.

Full-back Danilo is ruled out.

Verdict

Brighton v Nottm Forest

Brighton’s blistering start to the Premier League season has pulled up following consecutive draws. Nottingham Forest will be on a high after their win at Anfield and the in-form teams can share the points.
